Default Love Is (Cover)

Hi Ledgies!

Hope you had a great Memorial Day weekend!

As a songwriter, I am not one to usually do covers. But this song recently helped me though a situation and I thought it may be time to pay homage to my #1 musical influence.
I was only 14 years old when someone said to me "you sound like a male Stevie Nicks". I didn't know at that time who she was and that she would become such a tremendous force in my musical life.

Love you Stevie!

Thanks guys for listening!

I like the cover better than the original.

Hey, great job!! You have a really nice voice and the piano sounded great. You would make Stevie really proud if she ever heard it.

I wanted to ask you one favor, if you have a second. I'm usually decent at figuring out chords but I really can't figure out the chords for this song. I can't sing at all but when I'm home alone I still like to pretend that I can If you have a second and can write down the chords of maybe the first 30 seconds of the song, I'm sure I could figure out the rest. And if not, no problem.

Again, great job!!

Kevin

Hi Kevin - very interesting chords structure and I am also doing it in a lower key. So it's a 1,5, 6minor on the verses with the chorus being a 4, 5, 6minor. It's sort of like combining landslide on the verses, and Beautiful child on the chorus. Hope that helps!

You are awesome, thanks soooooo much. BTW, it doesn't really matter, but do you know what key Stevie does it in? I"m going to go check out what you wrote and then see if I can figure it out. Thanks again. I really appreciate it.

Kevin
